Freezing temperatures play havoc with weekend's sport

The freezing cold weather looks set to cause havoc with this weekend's sport fixtures.

The plummeting temperatures and the possibility of snow mean games for Amersham Town FC and Amersham & Chiltern RFC could be cancelled tomorrow.

A spokesman for Amersham & Chiltern RFC said today (Friday): "I think that it is highly unlikely that the games will go ahead, as the pitches are well frozen and the forecast is for more frost and snow tomorrow. However, I expect that a final decision won't be made until early tomorrow morning."

FOOTBALL: Town FC are looking to put last week's 5-1 mauling at the hands of leaders London Colney behind them. However they can only do that if the Hertfordshire pitch is in a playable condition tomorrow when they are due to face St Albans City Reserves.

The two teams drew 3-3 in their first clash earlier in the season at Spratley's Meadow.

Eight-placed St Albans go into the match off the back of a hard-fought 1-0 defeat to Welwyn Garden City.

RUGBY: Amersham & Chiltern's clash with Redingensians at Weedon Lane tomorrow could be postponed because of a frozen pitch.

Amersham lost 20-7 to Chippenham last weekend, while high-flying Reds were surprisingly beaten 22-26 at home by Exmouth.

Check games are still on here or with the clubs tomorrow before you don your supporters scarves and hats.
